Wrestlers battle in MSU Open

The Cavalier wrestling team left it all on the mat at the Michigan State Open Sunday as seven of Virginia’s wrestlers placed.

The open included more than 500 wrestlers from about 40 teams. The most notable performances for Virginia came from freshman Matt Bonson, sophomore Chris Henrich — ranked No. 16 in his weight class — and junior Brent Jones, who won championships at the freshman 133-pound division, and open 174- and 197-pound divisions, respectively.

The Cavaliers, who are ranked No. 23 in the country, will head to Chapel Hill, N.C. for the ACC/Big Ten Challenge this weekend to take on Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan State.
